HARD-CELL CROWD FOR PRINCE

October 14, 2008 --

PRINCE rocked the Gansevoort Hotel rooftop over the weekend, but the show was nearly KO'd by audience members who refused to turn off their cellphones.

As the "Purple Rain" pop star prepared to take the stage, a panicked emcee announced the hundreds of cellphones in the room had knocked out Prince's high-tech sound system. He begged fans to shut them or "there may not be a show."

Some did, but many ignored the plea - including one publicist involved with the show - claiming they had to have them on at all times. "It was so obnoxious," one fan said. "To think a bunch of idiots can't exist without their precious cells for an hour."

Once the problem was solved, Dave Chappelle, Spike Lee, Anderson Cooper, Howard Stern and Dennis Rodman bopped to tunes like "1999" at the Inocente Tequila event benefiting Love 4 One Another. Earlier, Prince had Gansevoort staffers working hard to meet his fussy demands. "He's very anal and required a humidifier in every room of his suite and the windows blacked out," a source told us.

Cell-phones seem like a constant attachment these days.
